Can you store oil base primer in a plastic container?

Oil-based primers should not be stored in plastic containers. The solvents in oil-based primers can react with the plastic, causing the primer to become contaminated or damaged. This can affect the performance of the primer and may cause it to fail to adhere properly to the surface it is applied to.

Oil-based primers should be stored in metal containers that are specifically designed for storing flammable liquids. These containers are designed to prevent the vapours from the primer from escaping and igniting, and they also help to protect the primer from contamination.
